A lovely sunday is forecast, so I hope you'll all be telling us where you've gone. I'd be headed west to explore around Hebden Bridge.

Chill out with the quoting huge photos

Rather unhappy post, I'll try not to be too un-brief. I got back from work yesterday and discovered my bike gone. I reported it to the police and searched my neighbourhood. Three hours later a CSO...

When interviewed by the police watchdog about his claim to have attended Dartmouth, Mr Adderley admitted he had been rejected by the college but said he had written on his CV that he had attended for...

Bike looks very lonely in that big garage :concern:

Lovely stuff

It had been a week since I was last able to get out, so I looked at the forecast and cheerfully thought sod it, and headed into the Dales. I got a soaking just before Leyburn, but the skies were kind...

The reason I got a brand new CB125R was that they had only recently bumped the engine up from 13bhp to the maximum 14.8bhp :applouse:

Obviously, I'm having a great time with that bike, but I would...

My filter for UK journalists and YouTubers is already nicely developed :suspicion:

I like watching reviews/demos from India - over there they're much better at assessing a bike within its own...

Guess whence?

Living where I live, and riding where I like to ride, if I had a garage I wound put a roof over the area immediately in front of it, so that if I finished a ride in the rain I could wash it and leave...

When travelling around on my 125, I'm using 3rd to 6th all the time, up and down, up and down, which I rather enjoy, it's very engaging. Reviews of the CB500s often say that that engine also needs...

I was aware of how uncontroversial a suggestion it would be in this thread :peach:

I knew I was onto something when I read some speed queen calling it weedy.

The train of thought that started with the Classic 350 and has trundled through the Interceptor 650, the Z650RS, the W800, the T100 etc took me to the local Triumph dealership, where they very...

Like a catwalk :congratulatory:

Like this?

Don't worry about what direction I do things - everything gets done in both directions eventually

How about this:

If when going from Otley to Clitheroe, I wanted to drop down to the area around Hebden Bridge, would these be the most enjoyable roads for seeing the hills at their best?

The western end of my trip today
